the Blood Donors,

Journal

before the days of
organized giving

BY J. A. McKEAN
GALLIPOLIS - Regularly each month I get an unsettled
feeling when they hang the Blood Bank signs on the traffic lights,
and just as regularly I enjoy a fond memory. The first because,
for physical reasons, I cannot be a donor now. The second, the
remembrance, is my recollection of the first time I donated.
One summer day in 1940, if memory serves correctly, the
usual drifters were idling in a downtown billiard parlor; some
hoping to get a tip on a job, some nursing hangovers, and others
waiting for the suckers to show and maybe pick a bale of cotton. A
slight, greyed, clean but shabby old fellow shuffled in uncertainly.
He'd been my deceased father's neighbor and I knew him well.
Humble, respectable, living out his earthly tenure in tranquil
poverty . Now, there had to be a compelling reason for his
presence in a pool hall.
He gazed perplexedly, at random, through the unfamiliar
interior until I greeted him quietly and asked if he needed
assistance. Haltingly and somewhat vaguely, he stated his wife
was gravely ill in the Holzer Hospital and Dr. Charles E. Holzer,
Sr., had determined it was imperative his missus receive a blood
transfusion immediately : two quarts. The poor, distressed, old
gaffer was downtown trying to l~tch onto five or six reasonably
healthy volunteers. Without saying, it was understood he had no
money to pay donors (though Doc Holzer would have managed
somehow.)
I knew literally nothing about transfusion, blood types, Rh
factors - nothing - but the man had been my Dad's friend, so a
guy sees what he can do starting with No. 1. It was early
(poolroom early). Hale and hearty possibles were limited, but
after considerable discussion, pseudo - knowledgable explanation, and general conning, I had two more committed but
skeptical prospects . The old guy was getting more nervous and
confused by the hassle, so we donors agreed it best to go at once
with him to the hospital.
We seta goodly pace across the city park and up First Ave. to
the institution where the grateful but distraught husband led us
directly to the sick room. Dr. Holzer appeared promptly and
briskly and clearly described the transfusion mechanics while
some uniformed gal stuck our fingers and disappeared w1th the
specimens. As quickly, Dr. Holzer wheeled away on other medical
business while we stood around disconcerted (but cool, you
know), trying not to look too closely at the comatose woman, had
a smoke in the hall, and soon the d('lctor appeared w1th the lab
results. My blood and one other's were acceptable.
My Y' 11:.i'. fru·nd's glanr·P ll'l(•gr&lt;Jphcd silently, but unmistakably, "0. K. pal You ~hnol first."
· Dr. Holzer seated me by the patient's tx?d n&lt;·xt 1o &lt;t
mysterious, skele tal contraptiOn strung with bot tl{'s and tubmg

and gauges and assorted strange gadgets, and soon the lady and I
were hooked up. The Doc was good, very good; alert to the
patient, to me, to the equipment. And he provided a lucid,
soothing, running commentary. Mostly, I looked at the
measuring, metric of course, and vaguely recalled that a liter is
1000 milliliters and a jot over a quart. At 500 milliliters he asked
how I was faring.
"0. K., Doctor. First rate."
,
"We'll have a bit more than." (Here is the place to say one
didn't question Doc Holzer much. He said it, you trusted him, and
that was that.)
More intense if possible, he inquired every 50 or 100 how I felt.
"Still fine." We kept on to 1000 and the Doc, like a good barkeep,
drew a shade more. He unhitched us and moved me to a nearby
chair and my partner went through the same procedure: a liter.
We sat quietly for a time while Doc completed his work with the
equipment and the patient. Then he asked us to stand, walk a few
steps. Were we fit? He was assured only a slight weakness was
detectable. We'd be all right.
"Do you men drink?"
" Well, Doctor," I stated, "we've been known to have a dram
on occasion."
HJ produced a quart of bonded bourbon and poured a
generous slug in three glasses. We drank to his health and wandered out. Charles E. Holzer, M.D., would have been one m ighty
fine combat flight surgeon .
The experience was soon forgotten and just as quickly
somebody started a war. Some years later I was on leave and
came upon my father's old buddy. His appearance was much the
same, but his countenance fairly glowed as he pumped my hand.
He inqutred about my well-being, stated with sincerity his joy of
seeing me home safe; then related hew the wife had recovered,
returned home , and both were more aged, but q uite well. He offered, sternly insisted, that we buy one in a nearby tavern. This
gesture was declined because he could scarcely afford it, and
because his profusely expressed gratitude and evident happiness
fully repaid any imagined obligation.
For me, there is something more involved in this memory than
a mere donation. Today, one goes to the blood bank and donates,
period . There is a sense of satisfaction in having performed a
civic duty in a worthy, yes, essential project. But something is
missing .
Could it be that intangible, personal touch ; the reality of
knowing one has contributed something of self to a specific,
known, appreciative fellowman? Sure, it's a complex society.
But, should not the personal associa tion be retained and promoted
In all worldly endeavors wherever remotely possible?
It's a thought.

RICHARD POULIN, Pomeroy National Bank employe, joined the shovel
brigade Friday afternoon as a two inch snow struck the area. Rising temperatures
overnight melted all of the snow but Saturday brought a new fall.

Speed Up Urged

To OpenResort
PT. PLEASANT - Del. Eugene Ball
(D-Mason) has asked Gov. Moore to speed
up negotiations with Federal officials
about acquisition of the Pleasant Point
Resort, so that the legislature might take
action - if needed - during its current
session.
Ball said in Charleston he has written
to Gov. Moore supporting the concept of
state ownership of the defunct facility on
State Rt. 62 north of here.
He told the Governor he was happy to
hear Moore's announcement in 1\t.:ason
County Monday night that the state was
discussing the future of the facility with
Federal agencies, and hoped to obtain the
resort at little or no cost to the state.
However, Ball noted, if any cost to the
state is involved, it would be beneficial if a
decision can be reached before the
legislature adjourns in mid-March, so that
the legislature may consider appropriation of necessary funds to obtain
the resort property.
Even if there is no cost to acquiring the
property, he said, there would be a need

for operational funds, and this would
require legislative action .
" Since there is virtually no state
recreational area along the Ohio River,
except for limited-purpose facilities such
as the McClintic Wildlife Station, I fully
support plans for a comprehensive
recreational complex built around the
Pleasant Point Resort. It was very
gratifying to hear Gov. Moore express his
li\lpport of this view, ' Ball powfei:l. ou .
"I agree with the Governor that 1t
seems unlikely that the resort can ever
survive as a private operation, in view of
the heavy debt load which is bein~ borne
by Federal agencies, ana I believe more
and more people are interested in its
development as a state-owned facility.
"To start this project moving, it
probably will take action by the
legislature. Therefore, I have asked the
Governor to take every possible step to
speed up negotiations so that the
legislature will be prepared to act in the
1971 regular session , if this is indicated."

Easter Seal Campaign
MIDDLEPORT - Members
of the Middleport - Pomeroy
Rotary Club, men who
generally have something to
say about most anything, or are
rarely awed by usual turns of
events, were made practically
speechless Friday night at
Heath church following their
regular dinner.
And it was a woman - Mrs.
Charles Simons- who did it. A
woman who took seriously her
unsought job as chairman of the
1971 drive by the Meigs County
Crippled Children and Adults
Society.
The position is unsought
because the Rotary Club "is"
the crippled Children's and
Adults Society of the county.
The immediate past president
of the club is president of the
society, and the wife of the
current president is fund drive
(Easter Seal Sale) chairman.
"I didn't ask for this job,"
said Mrs. Simons, after being
introduced by C. E. Blakeslee.
"But since I have it, I intend to
do the best job I can," she said.
Of that she convinced
Rotarians she is doing.
Since the weather Friday
night eliminated the "main
speaker" - Jack Treece,
assistant director of fund
raising for the State Society Mrs Simons provided the entire
program.
Mrs. Simons reviewed the

structure of the society and its
relationship to Rotary. The past
president of Rotary and
president of the Meigs County
Society of Crippled Children
and Adults is Judge John
Bacon, who is to be contacted if
help is needed.
The other officers who make
up the rest of the Society are
Chuck
Blakeslee,
vice
president; John Werner,
secretary; and John Welsh,
treasurer. The above three
officers are held currently in
Rotary as well as the Society.
Mrs. Simons stated that she
has compiled a card file of 5,693
Meigs County families who will
be contacted during the campaign which will rWJ from
March 1 to April 11. The card
files are divided into towns and
its
residents
in
with
alphabetical order. The files
were brought to Rotary so that

its members could have access
to them in order to make any
changes necessary since Rotary
is the sponsoring organization.
It was mentioned that in 1969
the contributions amounted to
$1,116 and in 1970 they were
$1,075.54. During last year the
society spent $1,230.14 (more
than what was contributed) for
Meigs County residents needing
transportation, shoes and shoe
repair, prescriptions, ir&gt;surance
and the Speech Clinic. Also,
almost one-third of. all contributions was sent to the Ohio
Society for research and
assistance on a broader scale.
This year Meigs County will
have its own Easter Seal Child
who will be revealed later.
Details concerning the campaign were discussed and
comment invited.

delivered in February to miners
and widows receiving Black
Lung benefits in Meigs County
will be about 6 per cent higher
than last month, according to
E ugene Ermatinger, Social
Security District Manager in
Marietta.
The Black Lung benefit
amount is tied to the minimum
pay rate for Federal employees
in Grade GS-2, Mr. Ermatinger
said . Therefore, the recent
legislation raising Federal
employees' pay results in an
increase in Black Lung benefit
amounts.
The monthly benefit for a
disabled coal miner, or his
widow, will now be $153.10, up
from $144.50. The maximum
benefit payable when there are
three dependents (a miner with
a wife and two young children,
for example) will amount to
$306.10 - an increase of $17.20.
A miner or widow with one
dependent will get $229.60 and a
miner or widow with two
dependents will get $267.90.
According to Mr.
Ermatinger, more than 17 million
is being paid each month to over
95,000 miners and widows
throughout the nation. The total
number of beneficiaries (when
all dependents are added) is
now over 153,000. The Social
Secu rity Administration has
adjudicated nearly 170,000 of
the over 250,000 claims filed
since the Black Lung benefit

Kent Disorders Back in Headlines
BY RON RIECHMANN
United Press International

_,
'I

.

•&lt;..

I

•

The violent disorders at Kent
State University last spring,
and specifically the grand jury
called to investigate them,
bounced back into the headlines
when a federal judge in
Cleveland ordered the panel's
special report destroyed
because it would "prejudice the
indicted."
(}{)v. John J. Gilligan was in
Washington to voice opposition
to President Nixon's revenuesharing proposal and a walkout
by guards at the Ohio
Penitentiary provided Gilligan
with his latest labor problem.
In New York, the college
football draft was dominated by
the Ohio State Buckeyes.

Rounding up the week's
events:
GENERAL
U. S. District Court Judge
William K. Thomas ruled the
special state grand jury acted
illegally in issuing its report on
last spring's Kent State
University disorders. He ordered the report destroyed but
refused to halt prosecution of 25
persons indicted because the
indictments "were separate
and self-sufficient" from the
report.
Ohio was plunged into a deepfreeze as arctic air poured in
along with heavy snow in the
northeast section and high
winds. Another storm moved
into the state Friday afternoon.
The federal government
suspended $207 million in

Housing and Urban Development projects in Cleveland
because the city had failed to
move ahead on public housing
projects.
POLITICS
Gilligan, in Washington
testifying before a joint
economic committee, expressed opposition to President
Nixon's revenue-sharing plan.
He proposed instead a tax credit
program that could even better
benefit the states.
The White House, in its
state-by-state breakdown of
how $5 billion would be
distributed under Nixon's
revenue-sharing plan, said Ohio
would receive $212.5 million.
It was learned that $16.3
million worth of capital construction projects already

approved by the General
Assembly would have to be
delayed or cancelled because of
the lack of money.
The governor announced the
creation of an Ohio office in
Washington "to establish the
closest possible liaison with the
federal government."
LABOR
For the third time since he
was inaugurated, the governor
faced a labor dispute ·- this
time the strike by prison guards
at the Ohio Penitentiary.
Gilligan ordered the creation of
a citizens task force to investigate conditions at the preCivil War institution. He urged
guards, who left their jobs
Monday over demands for
higher salaries and better
working conditions, and said he

would not invoke the Ferguson
Act, which requires the
dism1ssal of striking public
employes.
PPG Industries at Barberton
reached agreement with
striking chemical workers,
apparently ending a threemonth walkout that was punctuated by two lock-ins and
minor incidents of violence.
A report by the state on the
1971 economic outlook said the
rate of recovery from last
year's slowdown would be a
"modest" one, but would not be
enough to match the growth of
the state's labor force.
EDUCATION
The Toledo Federation of
Teachers recommended
enactment of a state corporate
tax and personal income tax to

Layoffs Coming
CINCINNATI (UPI) - Officials at the Atomic Energy
Commission's plant in suburban
Fernald said Saturday they will
begin in about three weeks to
lay off the first of some 470
workers scheduled to lose their
jobs due to federal budget
cutbacks.
M.S. Nelson, plant manager,
said the layoffs are the result of
President Nixon's budget
requests to Congress. The
budget cut will shut down two of
the AEC's five reactors and the
Fernald plant, operated by
National lead, supplies fuel
cores for the reactors.
The 470 employes to be laid off
represent about half the work

There was so much snow at
Watkins Glen, N.Y., Saturday
that the Grand Prix of
Snowmobile Racing had to be
postponed. But, across the
country, beaches were crowded
in Southern California.
Sponsors of the Watkins Glen
race suffered much the same
fate as the rest of upper New
York and New England-a
blizzard with locally heavy
snow, high winds and frigid
temperatures. They said the
race had to be delayed because
deep snow drifts prevent
drivers from reaching the glen.
New Snowfalls
Three to five inches of new
snow fell across Vermont, New
Hampshire, eastern New York
and western Maine. Northern
Pennsylvania had between one
and two inches of new snow.
High winds added to the
miseries of those who had to be
outside in the storm. Gusts of 69
miles per hour were clocked at
Youngstown, Ohio, and 60
m.p.h. winds were recorded at
Cleveland. A 100-foot Ohio Highway Patrol radio tower at
Cambridge was toppled and
trees there were uprooted.
New York City escaped the
miseries and temperatures
climbed into the high 40s,
quickly melting scattered predawn snowfalls. But New
Yorkers braced for a cold wave

forecast to arrive Saturday
night.
Los Angeles expected a high
in the upper 80s under swmy
skies and the area enjoyed its
second heat wave in three
weeks. Sun worshipers flocked
to beaches despite the chilly 56degree water temperature.
Bikinis in January
Bikinis were plentiful on
beaches at Malibu, Santa
Monica, Manhattan Beach and
Long Beach and spokesmen
said crowds were good and
"they're still piling in."
The eastern blizzard moved
out of Michigan, but some
travelers were .,ti~ not rr ,ving.
About 500 persons spent the
night in Veterans of Foreign
Wars and American Legion
halls in Wayland, about 25 miles
south of Grand Rapids, when
U.S. 131 became blocked in both
directions. State Police said 200
cars were trapped along a sixmile stretch of the road.
Three to five inches of snow
fell throughout Michigan. But
traffic was moving again in
Minnesota, Wisconsin and Iowa
where snow had fallen Friday.

�DO'CtOr"'''WithMute Patients •• Veterinarian .
It Begins

PICfURES AND STORY
BY PAT HOUCK
GALUPOUS- This doctor's patients can't tell him where it hurts, or how
they felt last week. But they can lick his hand and wag their tails. This doctor
practices veterinary medicine.
Veterinarian is a hard word to spell (Cover it up and see if you can.) It is a
derivation of the word "veterina," meaning "beast of burden."
Urban people today no longer associate a veterinarian with beasts of burden;
to them, he is the man who cares for their pets -cats, dogs -and more recently

With a

horses.
"Growing up on a farm instills a love for animals in a man's mind," said Dr.
Dan Notter of Gallipolis, who was raised near Lecta, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Dan

v

Notter of Scottown.
Basically a veterinarian's job
is the prevention of, care for,
and alleviation of disease and
injury in animals, with the
accent on prevention.
It takes a minimum of six
years study to become a
veterinarian and learn the care·
of furry, mute patients. Much of
this work entails surgery,
usually because of accidents.
Much is preventative.
"The best medicine and the
cheapest is preventive," Dr.
Notter said. •·If a family will see
to it their pet is properly innoculated they can save much
sorrow later.''
Following surgery, and
usually the day before, the
animals are boarded with the
vetennarian. Much of their care
at this time is done by Dr.
Notter's assistant, GARS
graduate Keith Hankins.
Keith also helps during
surgery and in general serves
as Notter's "right hand man."
Being a husky lad is an asset for
Keith because he sometimes
has to exercise animals
weighing almost as much as he
does.
The veterinarian's office is
open and clean, not a closed
place that a child might fear.
Somehow where there's a small
animal, there's usually a small
child to love it, to accompany it
in case of accident, or just to
learn the lesson that "Joe" or
"Spot" has to get a shot the
same as he does when he goes to
the doctor.
A veterinarian wears a white
jacket like other doctors and
sometimes he has something
furry m his pockets, alive and
moving.
It is the doctor's pet. Not a
cat, not a dog, as one mi,ght
thing, but a skunk! Descefl'ted ,
of course 1 Charlotte is her

A revival will begin at Christ
United Methodist Church,
formerly Ohio Chapel on

A WELCOME SIGHT, if one has an injurea pet.

name.
As if in modesty, Charlotte
heads for the corner the minute
she is out of the white pocket,
and turns her back to the room .
Dr. Notter doesn't recommend skunks as pets, even
though they are excellent
micers and are sure death to
moles, ants and bugs. They also
are rabies carriers.
At times a veterinarian's life
is frustrating, as in the case of
the dog with the flip-flop
stomach; sometimes it is sad,
as in the case of the dog with the
bullet shattered leg. But most
often it is rewarding.
The light in a child's eyes, the
smile on his face as he is handed
back a cared-for, comforted
pet, is a familiar sight to the
veterinarian.
It is the purest form of
speaking without words.

Just Between
Us
By Pat Houck
You didn't see flying saucers this week. You saw a lot of other
flying things, among them plastic garbage can lids. Oh, they
sailed through the air with the greatest of ease ... But as Jackie
Vernon would say, enough of this hilarity.
A LITILE BOY WAS running ahead of his mother, bringing a
news article into our office this week. The tyke could not have
been any more than four, if that. Because he couldn't see our
office receptionist behind the high counter, he said, "There's no
one here."
She said, "Oh, yes there is."
The child turned this way and that, saying, "Where is she?.
Where is she?"
By this time his mother had caught up with him. With strong
arms she lifted him until he was level with the top of the counter
and he could see QVer it. Then he saw the lady he couldn't see
before, but wh&lt;&gt; had been there all along.
Much depends on our point of view, does't it?
It seems to me there is a moral in the story. One that a smart
clergyman could use. Be my guest, if you're so minded.

I HAVE TO WATCH what I think. Dene Wagner (WJEH's
Chatterbox) and I seem to read each other's minds. (Right here I
can heaJ some wise guy say, "How?", but I won't go into that.)
We both seem to notice the same things and think alike on what
people are interested in. It has happened that I'll discover a real
good new idea for a story only to find she has already done it.
Then, too, once in a while I'll get one on her.
But most unusual of all is when we think of one
simultaneously, like the new houses in the area published last
Sunday. I had already worked on the feature and.had several of
the necessary pictures taken when all at once I hear her talking
about the new building going on in our area.
Our rivalry is all in friendly fun though, because we think a
great deal of each other and share a lot of the same sorrows and
joys that come to anyone in the public eye.
MRS. C. W. DAFI' OF VINTON sent me a letter a nd t!2i!IJ1ll!le
has saved "along with other memento she treasures. " The poem
was given to her by her Grandmother DeVore. It offers a true
picture of Vinton in 1894, the year it was published. T'll not use it
today since it's too long but will soon. I had no idea folks were so
interested in the long-ago days.

.•

I APPRECIATE MRS. DAFI''S response, and invite mor e of
it. It is nice, too, when I'm told of interesting people. Millie Folden
mentioned an especially nice person of whom I hope to do a story
about soon.
MRS. TIIOMAS S. SUMMERS of Bexley found some old
papers her father-in-law, John H. Summers, had saved. She very
thoughtfully, and rightfully, assumed we would be interested in
them.
Among the many items (which I will share with you) was the
following advertisement for Rio Grande College from the Sept. 10,
1878 Gallipolis Journal:
"Tuition and incidentals from $7 to $8 per term, or from $25 to
$28 per year. Board (including room rent) $2.15 per week. The
college is situated at Rio Grande, Gallia Co., a quiet healthy
locality on the stage line between Oak Hill and Gallipolis.''
Get that. Stage line, yet!

SEARCH FOR EL FIN
STILL GOES ON
Dear Helen:
Did you ever find "El Fin"
the 14-year-old who was sure no
one cared and asked you to give
her one good reason why she
shouldn't take the pills she'd
been saving up to kill herself
with?
My friends and I wrote letters
to her (via HHU) asking her to
let us help. Please tell us you
found El Fin. We can't get her
off our minds.
THE
WORRIERS, HACKENSACK
HIGH SCHOOL
Dear Worriers-All the hundreds of you who want to contact "El Fin":
Though I've tried through
several "Personals" in her
hometown newspaper, I've
heard nothing more from "El
Fin," (who gave me no name
and address). And this is why
columnists beat their heads
against the wall . Here is a girl
who desperately needs help but
i'&gt; so sure that "no one cares"
(or perhaps so afraid of the
authorities) that she won't
reveal her name. I can only
hope she has contacted the
agencies I suggested in my
" Personal to El Fin." I hope,
too, she reads this column which proves again that love is
always waiting, if we reach out
for it.
Dear Helen :
I have never been so moved
as I was by the letter from El
Fin. I'm black. I have a four
room apartment. I would
welcome into my home and life
this girl who believes no one
cares. I'm giving as my
reference the name of my
pastor.
You see, life has been very
good to me. I want to show my

thankfulness by helping a girl
who needs to know the world
isn't all bad. - ESTHER 0.
Dear Helen :
Please tell El Fin there are
people who care! I'm 23 now,
and several years ago I felt
exactly as she does. I needed
people to say "I love you. I
care."
El Fin: .You can't bottle up
those feelmgs. You have to .
express yourself, even if it's to a
stranger - just as you did to
Helen . You have to realize that
everyone isn't out to "use" you.
Please send your address to
Helen, so that we can show you
pills aren't your way out. I know
-for at one time, I felt that way
too.- N.M.
Dear Helen:
I cried, reading the letter
from El Fin. I want to be her
friend, to tell her that God cares
and so do I . There's a motto I
live by: Regardless of what has
happened before, TODAY is the
first day of the rest of your life.
Make it special!
I'm not a religious fanatic,
but I've come to realize that if
you let God take over, wonderful things happen. I hope she
contacts Youth Outreach, as
you suggested, Helen. Please
send her my letter so that, if she
wants, she can write to me. JUDITH
Dear Helen:
If you find El Fin, please let
me know. I will have to speak to
my parents, but I'm sure they
will ask her to come and visit
us, because they're that kind of
people . We could find her a
decent place in this community.
So many of .us really CARE ~
A.T., CALIFORNIA
Dear Helen:
I am a mother of four
daughters and two sons, and I
hope they will always consider
me their built-in "hot line ."
There's always room for one
more in our lives. Tell El Fin
that, Helen.
MRS. E. G.
ANOTHER
"PERSONAL"
TO EL FIN: Your mail grows
each day. Please send me your
name and address so that I can
forward it to you. At least write
and let us know that you're all
right. So very many people
care!

THOUGHTS OF A NURSE
I'm a nurse and I'm here to say
It's what I feel in my heart,
And certainly not the pay
That makes me realize that
every soul
Is equally precious, be he half
or whole.
My body may ache from head to
toe
I have dark circles under my
eyes
And a little gray hair may show
But when my day is over
And I'm on my way to bed
I think back on someone I made
happy
Or something a patient has
said;
And in a few hours, I'm back
again
Another day is tq begin
Full of complaints and full of
pain,
But yet my work is not in vain.
Even the smallest smile makes
Every minute worth its while.
I made a promise some time
ago,
One to which I must stick;
It was to help the ones who need
me
The ones in bed that are sick.
I carried a lamp down that
aisle,
On my face was a great big
smile;
I took an oath in a careless way
And now I realize what those
words say.
I have given a lot,
believe,
But not as much
received;
I'll never find my job to be a
bore
I may never be rich, but I'll
never be poor.

by environmental regulation"
such as at Marietta.

Layoff Threat is
Called Blaclunail
COLUMBUS (UPI) - The
Ohio AFL-CIO said Saturday
Union Carbide Corp. was practicing economic blackmail when
it threatened to layoff about 600
employes at its Marietta plant
if it was forced to meet government pollution standards.
The AFL-CIO, in its weekly
newsletter, said it was concerned about the jobs the employes at the plant but was also concerned about their health
and safety.
"Excessive pollution like the
stuff being spewed out at the
Union Carbide Plant costs Marietta folks more money to clean
their homes, their clothes, their
bodies," said the AFL-CIO.
"Their kids catch colds more
easily. And older folks with
trouble, emphysema and respiratory ailments are gravely
endangered.
"It's not that the federal government is asking a next-to-impossible miracle from Union
Carbide," said the labor group.
' ·No sir. An Ohio Edison power
generating plant further up the
Ohio River at Toronto, Ohio,
also was filling the air with excessive amounts of similar pollutants.
"But Ohio Edison quickly installed electrostatic
precipitators in several new
high - pressure boilers and
substituted a low sulfur fuel for
its high sulfur coal," said the
labor group. "The result was
that pollution was reduced to a
trace in a year's time."
The AFL-CIO said other companies have done the same.
"But Union Carbide prefers to

• Outdoor Laboratory Planned
BY JOHN COOPER
Soil Conservation Service .
PT. PLEASANT - The Busy Four 4-H Club and the
PTA group at Mt. Flower School are combining their
efforts to develop the Mt. Flower School and some
nearby private land into an outdoor laboratory for use
by the school or other interested people. We have been
helping them with plans for this development.
Some of the things which will be included in the plan

Lay of the Land
are the planting of native trees and shrubs, as well as
some evergreen trees on a steep area and the identification and labeling of these various trees as well as
many existing trees on the school property. There are
some eroded places around over the playground area
which is planned for smoothing and reseeding.
A wildlife food plot is planned to be sowed and bird
houses and bird feeders will likely be included in the
plan.
At the most recent meeting the local people who met
with us at the school were Mr. and Mrs. Pearley Sayre,

and Charles Wedge r epr esenting the Busy Four 4-H
Club, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Miller of the PTA, Thomas
Cook, principal at the school, David Keefer, teacher
and Rober t Matheny and Phillip Miller, co-&lt;:hairman of
the 4-H conservation committee.
PHILLIP LOUDERMILK of SCS helped Lawrence
Powell of Palestine Ridge and Harold Stover on Greer
Road with conservation farm plans. Mr. Powell has a
farm on Fees Branch in addition to one where he lives
on the ridge. Two years ago he improved a spring and
built a large reservoir below it which is used at his
home for hom e water supply as well as at a nearby
trailer.
He has been clearing some land classified by soil
survey as being Class III land for additional pasture.
This is land on which machinery can easily operate and
which makes very good pasture land. He has been
seeding Kentucky 31 fescue on steep slopes. He is
planning to protect by some fencing some land which is
too steep and rough for grassland.
Mr. Stover works off the farm but is inter ested in
developing it as a grassland farm.

CAPE KENNEDY (UPI)- A
"miniature Woodstock" formed
on the sandy beaches here
Saturday as hordes of moddressed
youths
joined
thousands of other spectators
for the establishments's big
space show.
"Wow, it's great," said 17year~ld Winnie Shepard of
Greenwich, Conn., who claims
no kin to Alan B. Shepard,
commander of the Apollo 14
spacecraft. "We've got a
miniature Woodstock going
here without the bands."
They came with pup tents and
sleeping bags, decrepit vans
~ecorated with flags, guitars
.md firewood to stake out
camping spots at the water's
edge .
They shared the $2-a-night
areas at Port Canaveral's Jetty
Park with vacationing families
in fancy campers.
"I think that with every flight
it shows this country is getting
together," said Jeff Shaw, a
college freshman from Coshocton , Ohio, who was cramming
for a biology exam on a beach
blanket while waiting for the
Sunday afternoon launch . "I
never had a feeling like I had
when Armstrong landed on the
moon, and that's why I came. I
wanted to see it."
l.&lt;Jcal officials were predicting the crowd of visitors would
reach a half million if the
weather holds fair.
The VIP guest list includes
Vice President Spiro T. Agnew,
Florida Gov. Reubin Askew, the
Pnnce and Princess of Spain
and numbers of other celebrities from show business,

sidering drainage for some of his bottom land. Denver
Yoho of SCS helped Mr. Adams with a preliminary
investigation of the needs for this bottom. It a ppeared
that a combination of a diversion ditch and tile
drainage is needed to do the complete job of drainage
on the land. More detailel' planning will be done when
Mr. Adams decides to go ahead with this project.
LYNN McCAULEY of SCS helped Bob and Carl
Powers whose farm is on the Ashton-Upland road with
a revision of their conservation plan. They had made a
pla n several years ago but it was somewhat out of date.
Three years ago the Powers Brothers had planted
two areas with several species of woody type plants,
mostly with the thought in mind of increasing wildlife
habitat and food. The plants used were black walnut,
white pine and autumn olive. Some Virginia pine had
volunteered into the plantation. Lynn reported that
some of the black walnut had grown to a height of 8 feet
and the autumn olive was almost that high. It is of
interest to note that these plants were set on
Moshannon Silt warn which is a ver y goud soil and
grows plants very well.

OF THE many Gallia Countians watching this afternoon's
biastoff of Apollo 14, at least two will have a personal interest.
We're speaking of Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Dickerson, 6 White Ave.,
Gallipolis.

+++
TODAY'S launch from Cape Kennedy (scheduled for 3 p.m.,
on national television) will be the start of a 1!)-day, half-million
mile journey for Apollo 14. If all goes well, the United States
spaceship will splash down in the Pacific Ocean on Tuesday, Feb.
9.

+++
ONE reason why Mr. and Mrs. Dickerson are extremely
interested in this particular flight is that Mrs . Dickerson's son,
Ronald Blevins, is an electronic engineer with the G. E. Electric
Co., Houston, Texas. Ron has been training the three Apollo 14
astronauts for more than a year in a geological capacity as to
their maneuvering on the moon's terrace.

+++
TOO, last October, Mr. and Mrs. Dickerson, while visiting
their son in Houston, had the pleasure of meeting all three Apollo
14astronauts. Not only did the Gallians meet the astronauts, they
have in their possession three 8 by 10-inch color photographs
containing personal a utographs of Navy Captain Alan B. Shepard,
Jr ., 47; Navy Commander Edgar D. Mitchell, 40, and Air Force
Major Stuart A. Roosa, 37.

+++
THE Gallipolitans had coffee with Commander Shepard in his
Houston office last fall . Shepard is the last of the seven original
astronauts .

++ +
WHILE in Houston, the Dickersons also took a "VIP" tour of
all lunar and command modules, and got a first hand look at the
astronauts latest moon attire. They viewed the lunar rover, a
small electric car that will wheel around on the moon. Official
name of the mobile workbench is Modular Equipment Transporter (MET). The astronauts plan two surface excursions in the
vehicle .

POMEROY - Congratulations go to Terry Fultz on that 4.0
she earned at Marietta College last semester.
Terry, a math major, got the straight-A record for 15 hours,
all far from easy - in Judaism, Introduction to Computing,
Chaucer, Civil War History, and Psychology.
Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. F. Fultz, High St., Terry, of
course, was put on the Dean's List.
TAKING A TUMBLE and getting a concussion is no way to
start a vacation as Etta Will will tell you. But that's what happened to her, and with some medical attention, a little :.-est and a
''few hundred pills," she enjoyed it all any way.
Etta and her husband, Harold C., are just back from a week's
visit in San Antonio, Texas with his son, CW0-2 Chief Warrant
Officer Robert E. Will, his wife, and their four children.
In service for 13 years now, Bob is getting ready to go to
Vietnam-hence the Wills' trip. Bob is a helicopter pilot and will
be doing recovery work there. He is currently stationed at Fort
Sam Houston.
Mr. and Mrs. Will traveled by jet from Cincinnati to San
Antonio. They did lots of sightseeing while there visiting four air
bases, several base hospitals, making a trip into old Mexico, and
joining their granddaughter for a Mexican dinner in her school
cafeteria. It was Etta's first flight and one she enjoyed
thoroughly.
THAT OLD CUCHE " Join the Navy and see the world"
seems to be holding true for Pomeroy's Jeff Folmer.
He's aboard the aircraft carrier "Ranger" currently in the
Hong Kong area. Before that it was Hawaii, twice in the Philippines, and then to the Gulf of Tonkin, 10 miles off the Vietnam
shore.
A plane captain, Jeff keeps in close contact with his family.
He recently sent his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Scott Folmer a
beautiful brass table lamp - 36 inches high - which he bought in
Hong Kong.
RACINE'S MRS. RUTH PARSONS will be celebrating her
85th birthday Tuesday at the home of her daughter , Mrs. Martin
Matteson, 1916 Woodward Ave., Poland, Ohio. Our best wishes.
Mrs. Matteson, by the way, is confined now to the
Youngstown Hospital, and a son of Mrs. Parsons, Elmer, is a
patient at Veterans Memorial Hospital.
Mrs. Parsons will be returning to her Racine home in the
spring but right now would really enjoy some mail from her
friends here .
